What is a NOS bar?

[Skisawyer]

A little trivia for the gang here...

Shopping bars and came across this description of chainsaw bars, as in NOS type bars, or NOS vintage bars.

Nose sprocket or No sprocket tip??

Help!

New old stock.

That term is used for a variety of parts.

Ouch, I hate when acronyms make me look bad.... That wasn’t nearly as exciting as I had hope. Here I thought I was gonna learn something about my new favorite hobby... I guess, in a way, did... lol

And now, back to the scheduled programming.

We have a facepalm emoji just for times like this. Better keep it close for next time.

New Old Stock: (NOS) Has been sitting in a shop for years and years. Good stuff. A lot of it comes from auctions of a shut down business. Or some gent is retiring and wants to get rid of all his stuff. Or a business changes directions and liquidates inventory.

NOS bar: it’s like a fuel rail with a series of injectors that gets bolted to the air filter housing that sprays nitrous speradically into the intake.

That’s more like it. Sounds wicked. I bet it cuts like a woods port x a 1000. Now, do the make em in 14” .050 with a AO41 tail mount...
